Question about X220 Drivers...

#1 Post by Rockrz » Sun Aug 26, 2012 10:25 pm

OK, I wasn't in to the Lenovo bloatware, so I installed a clean copy of Win 7 x64 and used the Activation Key that came with this laptop and all seems to be working well in that regard. I just wanted a clean Windows install where I decide what all goes on the computer so it's not bloated with stuff I don't want or use.

My question is... is there a list of driver's I need to update thas would not be included in the Windows install?

Things like:

Intel 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection (DONE)
Intel Centrino(R) Advanced-N 6205
Monitor Driver
Keyboard Driver
Clickpad Driver
Etc, Etc...

If anybody knows of a working check list that exists, please let me know...

Hi.

I posted a response to your thread on Lenovo Forums before I saw this one.
Hope it helps.

Cheers.

Goto support.lenovo.com select or enter your machine type. Goto the drivers download section. You can individually install the drivers one at a time or use Thinkpad Advantage Update. Thinkpad update is a very cool tool. Between that and Windows Update most all the drivers you need are covered there.

Finally I'll go to Intel's site install the recommended updates.
